The wait for ESPN BET is finally over. PENN Entertainment officially launched its replacement for Barstool on Tuesday afternoon.
Along with ESPN BET launching, Hollywood MI online casino also launched as part of the new ESPN platform.
That means there are new options among Michigan online casinos and Michigan online sportsbooks.
Here’s what you need to know about the new online platform for Hollywood Casino at Greektown.
ESPN BET looks similar to Barstool Sportsbook
PENN announced its plans to launch ESPN BET back in August.
After a failed experiment with Barstool, PENN struck a $1.5 billion deal with ESPN for a fully integrated online sportsbook that will tie to the nation’s top sports media network.
Using the same playbook that theScore Bet utilizes in Ontario, PENN plans to make ESPN BET easy to for consumers to access through the ESPN app itself.
When it comes to presentation, ESPN BET looks very similar to Barstool Sportsbook. The layout and icons are nearly identical with promotions available up top.
ESPN BET encompasses all major sports and offers live betting. It has player props, parlays, futures and more.
The interface reacts smoothly with betting selections while deposit options are vast for users.
